Fatalii

This pepper packs a punch! Originating from Central African Republic, this pepper is as hot as a habenero but it has a pleasant citrus after taste. This pepper goes great in dishes with lemon or lime as the critical component. This pepper can even be overwintered inside.

Planting/Harvesting Notes

  • Plant in full sun and well draining soil
  • Space plants 18 to 24 inches apart
  • Matures in 90-100 days

Seed Saving

To save seed, allow the pepper to turn red on the plant, then harvest, cut the pepper, scrape out the seeds and dry on a flat surface such as a screen, paper plate or baking sheet. Allow to dry for 1-2 weeks and then store in a paper envelope.
